=code= and ~verbatim~ with bashslash (\), LaTeX export

=code= and ~verbatim~ with bashslash (\), LaTeX export

[Jeff Kowalczyk]

Is there a way to escape backslashes (\) in code and verbatim that will export to LaTeX correctly?

When writing =\\host\share= or =C:\path\to=, pdftolatex output is incorrect.

The various methods described in [1] don't work for me in Org.

Thanks,
Jeff

#+begin_example 
 ~ and \ in latex
 \host

 \\host\share and c:\path\to\something

#+end_example

Thanks, Bernt. The begin_example method and ": " have been working well with
backslashes for me.

The =code= and ~verbatim~ markup would allow the author to spell paths and other
backslash items in the normal flow of text.

A feature request then: =code= and ~verbatim~ would escape characters with the
same environment/rules as the other literal example methods (presuming this is
possible for LaTex, of course)

Thanks,
Jeff

Hi Jeff,

thanks for the report, this should now work correctly.
